Hello guys!
I understood that Gibson ES-335 is exactly what I need. I sold my ES-335 from 2006 and 339, because I am ready to buy something more interesting.
I can't decide what kind of ES will be better. I think about two options.
1) ES-335 from Historic Reissiues
2) ES-335 from late 60's.
A new stock ES-335 (Historic) costs similar to ES-335 from 66/67. I know that ES guitars after 1965 has worse specs than those from 62 or 63. Lack of PAF pickups and brazilian rosewood fretboards etc. There is a huge difference between price of Gibson ES-335 from 62 and from 66, but maybe the late ones are still good enough?
What do you think about it? Do you have any experience with ES-335 from late 60's and Historic Reissiues? What would be your choice?
